Israeli forces have been attacking Palestinians in Masafer repeatedly every night.

"My house & neighbors’ houses, everyone was terrorized. It was like rain falling of tear gas, clouds of tear gas flooding the village." —Sami Huraini of @YouthOfSumud

"Human being rights in Masafer Yatta are in real danger. People could lose their lives at any moment—Israelis don’t care, they can start bombing & shooting. This is because the international community is not holding any accountability of Israel." —Sami Huraini of @YouthOfSumud

One week from today, the Israeli government will impose severe new travel restrictions that will further discriminate against Palestinian people.

mondoweiss.net/2022/06/aparth…
These new travel restrictions will force Palestinian people to hand over invasive surveillance information such as family member ID numbers.

The restrictions will also prevent Palestinian people from visiting Palestine, cruelly separate families, & cause further racial trauma.
Israel's new travel restrictions will further discriminate against Palestinians & separate them from family.

Yet @StateDept @DHSGov want to bring Israel into the visa waiver program—so Israeli nationals can enter the U.S., while Palestinian Americans can't visit their homeland.

President Biden is traveling to Israel this month, a country accused of war crimes & notorious for its awful human rights record.

Biden has done nothing to stop Israel's violence against Palestinians.

Policy analysis via @theIMEU:

imeu.org/article/imeu-p…
The @UN & every major human rights organization, including @hrw & @amnestyusa, have concluded that Israel is enforcing a brutal & racist system of oppression against Palestinians that amounts to apartheid.

amnestyusa.org/endapartheid/?…
The Israeli gov't is forcing over 1,000 Palestinians out of the homes they’ve lived in for generations. The Israeli military just killed Palestinian American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh.

Every day Israel violently oppresses millions of Palestinians just b/c they’re Palestinian.

The loss of renowned and beloved Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh is beyond devastating. Shireen was targeted & shot dead by Israeli forces while reporting in Jenin this morning. 🧵

Rest in peace, Shireen. Your voice will be remembered in the struggle for liberation.
The eyewitness accounts from journalists at the scene are clear: Israeli snipers targeted Shireen and shot her in the head near her ear, exactly where her press helmet did not protect her.

When regimes kill journalists, it is not a mistake. It is carefully calculated state violence designed to silence truthful reporting. The Palestinian Journalists Syndicate reports that Israel has killed about 50 Palestinian journalists since 2000.

Today marks the 1 year anniversary of Israeli forces' bombing of Gaza.

This is a moment to amplify Palestinian calls for freedom to hold Israel accountable, to uplift mental health, & to remember that Israeli violence & its impacts on Palestinian people are ongoing.
Hear from Palestinian psychiatrist & chair of the mental health unit at the Palestine Ministry of Health, Dr. Samah Jabr, about the impacts of Israel's violence on Palestinians.

For Palestinians, there is nothing "post" about PTSD—the violence never ends.

“We, the people of the Gaza Strip, get used to all these pains, but no one speaks for us.”

Check out this article in @AJEnglish to hear directly from Palestinian people on the aftermath of Israeli forces' attacks on Gaza one year later.
